This week's guest is an illustrator, painter who lives and works in San Francisco.He's quite prolific in his work and can be seen in galleries and group shows around the world.The painting on the left is Cantina Blues.It reminds me of Edward Hopper.I really enjoy it because it's Casablanca meets Lost in Space.Everyone should go check out his site here. Thanks Eric and thanks Ricky for bringing him over here.




1.
What is your favorite color?
I guess my favorite color is cobalt blue. Or the blue one sees looking into Crater Lake (in Oregan on a sunny day. The blue there is unreal!

2. Who is your favorite artist?
My favorite artist would have to be N.C Wyeth, though Frank Frazettas work is quite awesome:) But, I like a few other people in the world, Van Gogh is a favorite along with Wayne Thiebaud. Oh, Richard Diebenkorn too.


3.If you were a painting, which one would you be? Why?
I would be this painting...I really liked the book Robinson Crusoe. The painting shows that even in adversity, life is worth living.
